St Peter’s Church, South Somercotes

The Queen of the Marsh

This 13th-century church has a tall, slender spire, which for centuries has guided sailors along the Lincolnshire coast, giving the church the nickname of ‘The Queen of the Marsh’.

The building is mainly 13th-century, but the tower and spire were added somewhat later, and many windows were inserted in the 15th-century.

It’s spacious interior contains a superbly 15th-century font carved with the instruments of the Passion.
